HPCR/AA-250/SH-200 Fiber Optic Shutters

Product information "HPCR/AA-250/SH-200 Fiber Optic Shutters"

High Power; Insertion Loss <0.5 dB; Power Handling ≤50 W; Shutter Response Speed <5 ms; Shutter Electrical Interface 5 V TTL

In response to increasing demand for high power handling fiber optic components, OZ Optics has developed the HPCR / AA-250 / SH-200 series of fiber optic shutters and connectors that incorporate smart sensors for safety interlocks. These shutter systems can be incorporated in high power handling components, including freespace-to-fiber and fiber-to-fiber coupling situations.

For extreme power handing capabilities, the shutters can also incorporate additional beam dumps and/or heat sinks to safely absorb the blocked laser power. The key components that allow realization of smart shutters and safety interlocks are a series of proximity sensors and temperature sensors installed at suitable locations in the body of fiber optic assemblies. These provide the necessary electrical signals to alert the end user to take appropriate action.

Key Features:

  • Multiple Watt CW Power Handling
  • Shutter Speeds of <5 ms
  • Controlled via 5 V TTL Signal
  • Available with Temperature and Connector Proximity Sensors for Safety Interlocks
  • Compatible with SMA 905 and FC Connectors
  • Available in Laser-to-fiber and Fiber-to-fiber Versions
  • Fiber Connectors and Receptacles with Safety Sensor/interlocks Available

Applications: All Situations Involving Laser Beams, Including High Power Laser Beams Coupled into SM or MM Fibers; Laser Facilities Requiring Compliance to Laser Safety Standards; High Power Industrial and Medical Laser Applications - Laser Marking, Cutting, Welding, Laser Scalpel, Eye Surgery, Tattoo Removal; High Power Laser Physics; High Power Spectroscopy; OEM Laser Systems

PZ2 Fiber Stretchers
High Efficiency, Open and Enclosed Versions; Fiber Type SM, PM, RC; 780-1625 nm; Fiber Length 40-82 m; Fiber Stretch 3.8-8.0 µm/V; Fiber Leads 1 m, 0.9 mm OD Jacket; Connector Type Bare Fiber, FC/PC, FC/APC The PZ2 series provides the most extensive stretch of Optiphase’s stretcher product family. At the core of the PZ2 high-efficiency fiber stretchers is a fiber wound piezoelectric element for use in a wide range of optical interferometric measurement and sensing system applications. The PZ2 is ideal for use in OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) and OCDR (Optical Coherence Domain Reflectometry) applications requiring scattering or boundary definition measurements. Optiphase’s expertise in the design, manufacture and use of all-fiber interferometers has produced a unique multi-layer winding approach resulting in an enhanced modulation function while maintaining a high operational frequency. PZ2 high-efficiency fiber stretchers are available with single mode (SM), commercial polarization maintaining (PM, Panda or Bowtie) or SM reduced cladding (RC) fiber types PZ2 high-efficiency fiber stretchers are available in two versions: Housed in an enclosure with connectors, making set-up and use quick and easy Bare lead fiber stretcher, not enclosed and including a convenient mounting kit consisting of a top-mount aluminum retainer and two silicone rubber pads - the mounting kit includes top or bottom mount Optiphase fiber stretchers are unique in that they do not require proprietary drivers. For most low-voltage applications (<±15 V) Optiphase stretchers can be driven by standard electronics such as signal generators, op-amps or other laboratory equipment without modification. For more information on how to drive PZ2 high-efficiency fiber stretchers see the downloadable application note. Key Features: High Efficiency Housed in Enclosure With Connectors or Bare Lead Fiber Stretcher With Mounting Kit Fiber Type: Single Mode (SM), Polarization Maintaining (PM )or Reduced Cladding SM (RC) Fiber Multiple Termination Choices Unique Multi-layer Winding Can Be Driven With General Purpose Electronics Operational Wavelength: 780 to 1625 nm Fiber Stretch: 3.8, 5.5, 8.0 µm/V Optical Path Displacement: 5.6, 8.1, 11.8 µm/V Time Delay: 0.019, 0.027, 0.039 ps/V Fiber Length: 40, 60, 82 m Inclusive Fiber Wind: 2, 3 Layer Optical Loss: ≤0.5 dB Maximum Voltage Range: ±400 V up to 300 Hz, Then Derate -6 dB/Octave Connector Type: 1 m Bare Fiber Leads (Open Stretchers), FC/PC or FC/APC (Enclosed Stretchers) Dimensions: Ø63.5 x 38.1 mm (Open Stretchers), 101.6 x 152.4 x 44.5 mm (Enclosed Stretchers) Applications: Open Loop Demodulation; Sensor Simulation; White-light Scanning Interferometry; Large-angle Modulation of Interferometric Phase; Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT); Optical Coherence Domain Reflectometry (OCDR)
